I don't see, what Jeff Bridges has actively to do with it. Besides being the marketing bait. Thr about us section just repeats the pr biography. What was his part in this camera?

Jeff Bridges is a photographer (among other things) who’s been shooting with Widelux cameras for 40+ years. He’s the co-founder of the company who’s creating this revival. It would not exist without him.
TIL Jeff Bridges isn't just a pretty accomplished actor, but also a photographer who got an award and released multiple photo books [1].

Creative people are creative. Dick van Dyke is an accomplished computer animator, dating back to the Amiga.

Right. The whole revival was his idea, according to the story told by the other founders. Also, presumably he has funded the whole effort so far.
